Finishing touches: Door Knobs

There is always that final piece of detail that usually either gets overlooked or not even noticed at all. Doorknobs are now coming out of the woodwork. They can be glass, metal, wooden, plastic, ceramic, brass. So many finishes are available now.


Designs are very innovating and really pushing the envelope. And It's all in the small details.


These ones below are made out of glass by Out of the Blue Design Studio. They look fab!!!!

The next one is a French antique one made out of ceramic

 These are made out of both ceramic and glass. Very dainty "eye-candy"


I love these as they have catchy words to say the least

This one is made out of Ivory resin from "Graham & Green". In a very nice "creamy" colour too.

This one has an "antique" appearance. Very nice intricate detail on the porcelain knob itself. So right up my street.

How about one made of "pumice" stone. Yes pumice!

Remember I said designs are pushing the envelope. See these below. What do you think? Am loving these Sport-themed door knobs by Chloe Alberry



And finally but not the least a good old wooden one. But not just any ordinary one. This is a beehive wood-turning doorknob! By Chloe Alberry too.
